Man Ah Warrior

Tapper Zukis debut album Man Ah Warrior was originally released in 1973.Its classic Dee Jay style has been copied by many but bettered by few. An album that more than most shows that raw talent with little resources can still be a great, great thing.Tapper Zukie (b.1956,David Sinclair , Kingston, Jamaica) was raised in the rough and tough West Kingston area of Jamaica between the districts of Trench Town and Greenwich Farm.Living pretty much on the streets from an early age the youth including the young Tapper had no choice but to fall into the hands of the political parties that controlled the various ghetto areas of the town.Fear of landing in even more trouble, a plan was devised by Tappers Mother ,Brother ,Reggae producer Blackbeard and family friend Bunny Striker Lee .The plan was to send the wayward Tapper to England to cool his ways.A UK tour with the number 1 Reggae Dee Jay U-Roy was already arranged on his arrival, Bunny Lee got the young Tapper to toast over a Slim Smith rhythm, the London crowd loved it He also caught the eye of producer Larry Lawrence who took Tapper on and cut his first single Jump and TwistNine further tracks were recorded for producer Clement Bushey that would result in this album man ah Warrior.We hope this introduction to Tapper Zukies music inspires you to look further into his catalogue of great music. An artist ahead of his time, whose music has influenced many.
